Ah! Enjoy your break in Spanish Spain! Andy.

A 75 year old man goes to the Doctor. "What seems to be the problem?" The GP asks. "My wife and I have lost interest in Sex, Doctor." The man replies. "I see!" Says the Doctor, "When did you first notice this?" "Twice last night and another three times this morning!"

C'mon, i'm turning blue here holding my breath for the "Fact"

Due to cutbacks, the light at the end of the tunnel is being switched off!

Thank you for bringing the layout up to proper Scotland!

Very good layout, an excellent variation on a terminus. Great to watch and follow the flipchart narrative. Thank you. Andy.

The hazards of layout building in Australia

I visited Australia in 2005 and whilst in Far North Queensland, I was warned about Redback Spiders and their habit of hiding in toilet bowls! Didn't c#@p for a week! -
Terrible, the wrong coloured weeds, too clean, no IBC! Apart from that, absolutely brilliant! Captures the feel of Eastleigh!

If you're coming that far, another 45mins up the A82 you can turn off at Tyndrum and head down through Dalmally to Cruachan, "The Hollow Mountain" There is a visitor centre there and you can go into the turbine hall about 500metres under the mountain. Not far from there to Connell Bridge either. All the best, and keep up the good work.

Fantastic bridge Peter. I know it very, very well. It's 13'9" clearance is not quite correct for HGV's. I took the hoses of a digger on that bridge and I had 13'6" measured before I crossed it! The power station is very reminiscent of Sloy on Loch Lomondside. Hope the health problems are on the turn. Andy.

Thanks Wayne, I was thumbing through a mag the other day at work and remembered your thread and trackplan. Thought i'd drop you a line and see how your were progressing. I'm still thinking about a similar idea...........

Hiya Wayne, any updates dude? Andy.

Oh heavens, it's started again.......................................

Experts have suggested that to make the perfect cup of tea, one should agitate the Bag. So, this morning I shouted down the stairs, "Milk and two sugars, fat-arse!" My head still hurts, but the swelling has gone down a lot.....

Wonderful layout Module. Please post some more photographs. Andy.

C'est formidable, Chief! This layout has to go to exhibitions! I'm sure most will agree.

Collected Junior from BB tonight and as we got out of the car he noticed a small bird on the gravel at the front of the house. A robin had hit the window and unfortunately had died. Cue mini funeral for 7year old and 3year old. Had to say a prayer(No Hymns thankfully) and then bury the bird under a bush in the garden. Then explaining burials to a three year old.

With a layout like this, confidence should be the easy bit. It's eyecatching, it's different and it's got so many opportunities for "Wow, didn't expect to see that" Go for it Scott!

Teacher asks the children "What sounds would you hear on a farm?" Alice, "Moooo!" Teacher, "Well done" James, "Baaaa!" Teacher, "Excellent!" Rose, "Cluck, cluck" Teacher "Splendid Rose" Billy "Here you, get off the F####n Tractor!" EDIT; Correcting spelling error.
